The new 2007 Lexus GS 350--with a more powerful, direct-injection 3.5L V6--replaces last year's GS 300. Also, available on the GS 430 and GS 450h, a new Active Stabilizer system helps improve handling response while allowing a compliant ride.

The 2007 GS line from Lexus competes with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5-Series, straddling the line between comfortable luxury car and high-tech sport sedan. The GS 350 now stands out as a better value because of its performance (among the best among six-cylinders in its class) that's close to the GS 430 at a much lower price, while the GS 430 and GS 450h stand out for their additional high-tech features.
